Rick’s partner and best friend was a hot topic of conversation this week, with the commenters discussing his complicated relationship with Rick and Lori, and wondering how much longer he’ll survive.

• “Shane he is like that friend who is always hanging around watching what the wife or girlfriend wants, and that is for most (not all) women, the attention of their mate or man.” — mamabear

• “The more I think about this series, the more I find [Shane] to be a very sympathetic character. We saw everything [Rick] went through… Hell, he slept through most of it. His buddy has probably had a lot more stress and he saved the guy’s family.” — SenatorBluto

• “I kinda think that Shane will stay alive in this series ’til the end. He is a good character and a good friend of Rick, even though they are having some problems with each other.” — Mortal Kombat
